Maid of Honor
I met Brittany in 2007 at Lincoln Park Academy in 7th grade science class. I remember the first day we meet like it was yesterday. Since day one we just clicked and our friendship was unbreakable. We had our moments where we fought and didn't talk to each other but in the end we worked it out and no one could ruin our friendship. She has been my rock since day one and for that reason she plays one of the most important role in my wedding.
Best Man
Brent, Where do I start. The best big brother I could ask for. It hasn't always been perfect, but my respect and love for you will never waver. We've had many Hunting and Fishing adventures, and there is a whole lot more to go!
Bridesmaid
Katie, Katie, Katie! There is only one place we could have met, that place is of course a golf tournament with SFPGA. Although at first we weren't friends because I'll be honest she was always kicking my ass on the golf course (I was a bit of a sore loser). But as time passed the tables turned! We came really close thanks to golf tournaments and I wouldn't change anything about it. Katie has always encouraged me and believed in me. We played numerous tournaments together in college and seen each other frequently when I was at Limestone and Katie was at Belmont. Ever since then we've been glued together!
Groomsman
Cousins? Brothers! Nick and I shared a connection even though we have a 5+ year age difference, and that connection is through sports and academics. Nick played football in college as well as maintaining a high GPA and earning a few degrees, while I was playing football in High School and working to get into college. He's always been a huge roll model in my life and someone I've always strived to be like. From when we were just little kids to now our adult lives.
Bridesmaid
Ooo boy where to start with Krystal. We met in 6th grade at Northport middle school. From spending almost every day with each other after school and on the weekend when we were little we became such great friends. I can honestly say if you wanted to know about any drama we definitely had the details about what went down in Port St Lucie. Although as we got older and entered High School and College the driving distance between us kept increasing but our friendship was always there. No matter how long we went without talking to each other because we were so busy, it always felt like we never skipped a beat in our conversation.

My best friend I gained through some of the most trying times in my life. Montrell and I met in 2015, in Calculus 1. This being after we both had very rough first semesters at FL Tech. We clicked instantly and begin studying and pushing each other in everything we did together. From, studies, tests, games, the gym, and bowling; we always pushed each other and supported each other to be better. Ultimately, I wouldn't have met Brittany if it wasn't for Montrell. He convinced me to join the bowling club in college, where her and I met.
Bridesmaid
I met Clare at Limestone College for the Women's Golf Team. At first I knew she was a little scared to be my friend because I was the one that didn't fit in with everyone on the team (she heard the rumor's that I was the troubled one). But she finally came around and saw the true colors of what Limestone was like. If it wasn't for Claire, I wouldn't have made it through my second year at Limestone. We had each others back on the team when everyone was against us. She has always been there for me even when she is 400+ miles away!

Talk about age difference... Stacy and I met when I started working at Newport News Shipbuilding. Stacy is also an Engineer. This old guy is like 39 or 50 or something... Anyways, we have been great friends and spent many days hunting, fishing, and tinkering with the many projects we both have (mostly his). His passion for the outdoors is what drew us to be buddies and get through the long days at work, and now we are best friends.
Bridesmaid
Ooo my where to start with Chelsea, we first met at Florida Tech while working as work studies at the design center. I would say the two of us together was always trouble. P.S. as bowling partners we were unstoppable!! She has been one of the few to see Justin and I's relationship develop from the very beginning. She was also one of the few that knew Justin was going to propose to me. I don't know how she was able to keep the secret for so long but I am so proud of her!
Usher
Drew and I are cousins and he is Dustin's Twin. Growing up, we spent just about every other weekend together up north at Grandma and Grandpas house. All of the crafts, food, games and mischief we all indulged in, Drew was always my partner in all of it. Drew is another cousin that's truly like a brother to me. I admire his courage and ability/talent in literally everything he does. Drew so graciously gave Brittany a summer home for one of her internships, and we all had a blast together exploring the DC area.
Bridesmaid
I meet Elena at my new job working at Northrop Grumman. Ever since the first day we meet we instantly became the best of friends. Through my good days and bad days she is always there to make my day better. From one leg workout at the gym (needless to say it took me almost a week to be able to walk again), to bowling events, and summer games for NG we have been unstoppable.
Groomsman
Jack, was my first college roommate by choice. One of the best friends I made in college. Jack will give you the shirt off his back. If I had an extra spot from the get go he would have been the first to fill it. Jack Is from Virginia but I don't hold that against him... The fact that he accepted this invitation on such short notice shows you the guy he is and the friendship we have. Welcome to the wedding party buddy, Let the celebration begin!
